The Democrat trumps mp . chang
against its candidate fol Sheriff, O
haying served in the rebel army. w,
don't know how true 1t Is. The REGIS
TER had . letter from . responsible
citizen of Salem township the weel
after Mr.. DeHaven was nominated
making the same charge and saying
that It could be proven. And about
the same time Peter Jury, heretofore Z
staunch democrat Of Elm township
was reported to us - saying, in speak
ing of the democratic convention and
the nomination OF DeHaven; II hav'
voted my last democratic ticket. Wher
Q rebel can 90 before democratic con
vention In Allen county and II
nominated over q good Union soldier
it Is time for me to quit" We did moi
publish the letter or quote Mr.. Jury'i
remark for the reason that we knew
that Mr.. DeHaven would be beaten
anyway and 90 it made no difference
what his war record was. And We
don't know Of any other republican
who il saying anything about 1t. Mr..
Britton is running on his own record
a. . gallant soldier, q good citizen and
o splendid officer;-not on the record,
whatever it may be, of his opponent.
The Den0cdt is slugging q man Of
straw that its own imagination
coRured up.

CAPT. C. c. KELSEY from his long ser
vice as deputy in the treasurer's Office,
is thoroughly acquainted with the
business Of the county and could enter
at once upon the discharge of his
duties as county commissioner with .
ready understanding Of everything
brought before him. The people Of
the first district will win the approval
Of the entire county by electing him
Of their representative on the county
board.
T. II. DeHaven gave us a friendly cal the
will prove to the satisfaction or every person
in Allen county that he never seen rebel army
-Dem0crdf.
We don't know why Mr.. DeHaven
should be 80 anxious to prove that he
never "seen" q rebel army. His OPP
p0nent Mr.. Britt0n, doesn't deny that
he has seen one. Several of them in
tact. Indeed he made it the business
of his life for about four years to look
for and to look at rebel armies. He
was out cunning and that was the
kind of game he was after.
Mr.. NJ. B. Jacobs, Of the north side
grocery, has made arrangements to
have his saw mill, including planning,
re-sawing and modelling
removed from Oswego to
this place. The saw mill will be set
up at some point along the river, and
the planning machinery will probably
be put in operation in the Carriage
Works building. Thus is added a new
which We hope to see thrive.
We already have the names Of re-
publican nominees for township offices
in the following townships: Geneva,
Deer Creek, Carlyle, Elm, Marina
ton, Humboldt, lola and Cottage
Grove. We desire to publish next
week the names of the republican NOM
inees in all the townships and trust
that the central committeeman in Usage
Salem and ElsmOre will forward us
the names of their nominees at once.
The republicans claim to have put down the
rebellion" and ''saved the Unioni'' Did they
down the rebellion, but the DEMOCRATS,
withthe aid Of q few patriotic republicans DID

The democratic party has always been and is
to-day. the only political party that Is true
proved by the fact that nearly a quarter Of .
million more democrats fought to free the me-
gro than Of any other party-Alien County DEM

What rare wags these democratic
papers are!
All of Odr readers are reminded of
the addresses that will be made by
Hon. E. II. Funston at Moran next
Monday evening, Oct 31st, at lola the
following Saturday evening, Novem.
Der 5th, and at Humboldt, Monday
evening November Z. Mr.. Funston
will doubtless address himself mainly
to national issues and his discussion Of
them will be well worth hearing.
The postmaster at Geneva informs
US that the papers addressed to Josiah
r n AZ T.
that Office. The former owes for his
subscription since March LIST; the Lat
ter has paid his subscription till Nov.
30, and If he will send us his present
address we will send him the paper to
that date or refund the money due
him, latter paying for this notice.
A leading prohibitionist told us the other
day that he confidently expected they would
poll 800 votes this fall.-Demoeraf.
The REGISTER has not been favored
by so much as moments talk with
"a leading prohibitionist." A little
when one thinks about it,
that these third party leaders should
always hunt up democratic ears into
which to pour their condolences.
